Request for Trained Early Responders from Rev. Matt Lacey

North Alabama Conference: North Alabama invites UMCOR Emergency Response Trained [ERT}. If you have been ERT trained, here are the criteria which we are asking you to follow: Team leaders MUST have a valid UMCOR ERT badge in the last 3 years. Team members must have a valid conference or UMCOR ERT badge in the last 5 years. To volunteer, please visit this site to register. We are taking these criteria very seriously due to the nature of the damage of these storms. Please remember that we are a connectional system, and are going through the proper channels to insure everyone's safety and well-being If your church wants to give an offering, please give through UMCOR's website or making a check out to the North Alabama Conference labeled with the Advance number 3021326.
